Recently I managed to get my MESH viewer to work and I must say it is quite addictive, you end up zooming in your character just to see how perfectly clothes blend when you move…

And with this, here I show you some of my last acquisitions, from Pumpkin and Villena, a set of really cozy and cute long pullovers and cardigans.

Note that this will be a long Post so make sure you scroll down all the way to see all info.

First we have Pumpkin unbuttoned cardigan, as you can see this is quite a sexy thing to wear, it comes in a lot of different colors and 2 styles, for male and female, and it also comes in 2 different sizes for large and petite people.

Next is the hoodies from Villena, these are all in light colors and they all have a front image stamp, as you can notice, the shape is slightly rounded at the bottom, which means it might require you to reduce the muscles/fat on your legs a little, in case you are bothered by having your legs poking through the fabric, for most shapes it is just reducing it a tiny bit.

And last, it is my favorite set, the cotton pullovers from Villena, I simply adore everything on them, how the sleeves and neckline are a different color from the body part, the frontal image stamp are all way too cool to pass on, and the shading done do the textures gives that light and flowing feeling that a cotton pullover should have.

Some days ago I got some items that are definitely worth showing, and together with this post there are some sad news. So lets start by the sad part…

Grixdale is closing its door on Aug 31st, the owner decided to focus on real life and her second store, Aura. I can’t blame her, when I had my store it was so much work and time consuming to keep it updated and come up with new ideas for items, I can’t imagine what she went trough by having to do this in duplicate, and real life is more important! so with tears in my eyes I support Tyr’s decision 101%. So, for this month duration, Grixdale is having a sale, every item is 100L or under, so go grab some pretty clothes before they are gone, and check out Aura.

Also, remember to do the Depraved Urban Wreckage hunt, the elf ears I am wearing here are one of the prizes, amazing, right? (Check older Posts for information about this hunt).

Now for more happy news, V.E.L re-branded to Birdy, I find this new name a lot more catchy and sorta makes me smile whenever I say it…lol. With this new name, they bring a lot of new clothes, makeup and many other things. Here I am showing you some of the last tops and their new skin. Their newest tops come with sculpted prims to give a bit of extra volume and there are plenty of different styles, colors and textures to choose from. Also, Villena released some funky cool scary t-shirts, on the bottom image I am wearing two of them, as you can see, they are quite creepy and cool looking, I love the very short sleeves style, these and the shirt bottom are sculpted prims.

Today I decided to browse my inventory and grab some old and new items, then mash them together and voila! a new look that I sorta like a lot lol…

It all started when I found my new Plastik skin, this skin is a prototype/beta that will be released in the near future after Aikea is done with the tweaking and making it even more perfect and beautiful. I think this new line of skin looks a bit more younger than her other skins, the shading is smooth and not to dark, making the skin look softer and smooth, the chest shading is simply amazing, reason why I had to find some clothes with a nice cleavage.

And here is where one of Plastik’s dresses comes in, sexy but at the same time it gives a dangerous feeling, could be because of the tied ropes around the stomach or thanks to the accessories, I am not sure.

For the accessories, I tried to stay simple and dark, so what is more dark than a black beads rosary necklace? of course, this amazing necklace is from Haus of Darcy, it comes together with a set of piercings, in this outfit I added a extra set of piercings to it, from Niju, their new free item, a beautiful snakebite piercing with a small chain linking both loops.

So I reached the part where I needed to put on some shoes, this is my nightmare since I do not have that many shoes and I do prefer animal legs over pretty pumps, so I end up buying more and more legs and forget that a nice pair of shoes might come handy sometimes. Oh well, since I was lacking some nice knee high boots, I decided to turn the look into a sea like hybrid, so I threw in my Gauze hooves and tail, this combo is my favorite for any of my hybrid demon looks. The tail with the fluffy tip gives the feral feel and the hooves are simply my favorite because of the extra claws at the “heels”. For ears, yes I needed some elf like ears and what is best than Plastik’s new gauged ears, the dragoon shape is perfect for most sea or dragon related look because of the spiked shape.

So my look was almost done, but it was lacking a little more of color and “creepyness”, for color, this was easy, I just needed to add Plastik’s demon fades legs and arms color gradient, and a pair of pretty green eyes from Insufferable Dastard. And the creepy part, well if you are searching for unique and different stuff, stop over by Niju, she has so many items that are simply amazing and look so cool! like the black claws and horns I am wearing, both give this dark creepy effect but not to the point that will make a kid burst out in tears and run to their mommy, Vitani always does a great job in balancing dark and cute, making all her items look so magical and special.

In the end, hair is the last addition that will either complete your look, it is amazing how something as simple as a hair style it can completely change the effect of your outfit. I could had picked a goth like straight cut with a fringe, and this would turn my look into a goth like girl, or I could had picked a pretty wavey or curly hair, turning into some sort of demon princess, but, none of this looks is what I was searching for, I wanted something pretty, but dangerous and kinda boylike, and then I remembered Raw House, their hair styles tend to be cute and slightly punk, and yes, exactly, I found the perfect hair for my new outfit, their willow redux hair is adorable, with uneven bangs and with a short cut side, while the other side is longer, it gave that feeling of beautiful danger, also thanks to the short side, my Plastik ears aren’t fully covered showing their beautiful shape. I also love how this hair fits your skull, not needing to make it too big so it would hide all the “bald gaps” and I didn’t need to readjust it at all.

Koketka‘s new release! specially made for summer hot days here you have a set of top and panties that can be worn at home or outside. To match with this set, there are new ballerina’s shoes that are also striped to match with the clothes.

Both hairs are from Xplosion, now being sold at the Hair Fair, but they will also be available at the main store once the Fair is over (on the 16th).

New store has arrived SL! its name is Koketka and it has a huge and interesting variety of clothes, in this post I will show you some of their creations.

First, lets start by the separates, jeans and tops, that is right, they got a nice variety of tops in different styles and patterns and colors! so many colors. My favorite of all would be their Lana top (far left on the image) I think the floral pattern is perfect for Summer and the bright colors make it even cooler. As for the jeans, they are low waist, and they come in three colors, dark blue denim, light blue and brown, as for the styles, you can find them in solid denim (first three in the image), or denim plus the stripes fabric (far right one). I love the striped jeans, I think the idea is great and this fabric patterns make them so more colorful and pretty.

Now their dresses, well one thing is certain, they have styles for everyone. Either their cute patches dress, Lana which can be found in different sets of colors, or their colorful dress, June, that comes in more vibrant colors and a cute straight skirt. There is also (my favorite) their Denim dress, which is way too sexy and casual, so perfect for me, and last, their HOT dress, with a lace top and sparkles effect skirt, this dress can be found in their full version, or in the mini version that has pasties instead of the lace top. the gloves also comes with this dress, just to give that dangerous look.

And this is it for the items that I had to show, make sure your visit their store~
